Looking for a place where you can reconnect with yourself and nature and meet other inspiring people? Welcome to our Eco-living in la Zarzuela, the first ecological coliving on the Costa de la Luz! 

We believe that living in community with others and in harmony with nature is the key to a more fulfilled and sustainable life. If you think so too, we look forward to having you join our little ecoliving family! Wake up to the sound of birds, practice yoga or meditation, be creative and productive, or just chill in a hammock between the palm trees. Make new friends, share your favorite meal, and explore this magical area of southern Spain. 

With a total of 5 rooms, we are a small coliving, giving you the chance to connect more deeply with everyone staying. All of the rooms are private and equipped with either a big bed or 2 small beds. They can be booked as a single room or, if you are 2 people wanting to share, as a double room. All rooms have their own entrance from the garden and an ensuite bathroom. There are various terraces to sit on, a covered backyard for outside dining, a BBQ, a yoga platform (mats available), a vegetable garden, and an infinite number of plants, flowers, and trees. Last but not least, there is Milo, a super cute border collie, that is waiting to be cuddled by you.

We are located in a small, rural village called La Zarzuela, on the beautiful Costa de la Luz. While we are away from all the hustle and bustle, we are only a 5-minute drive from the most pristine beaches Spain has to offer. Nestled between 3 National parks and at the most southern point of Europe, there are plenty of different sports and activities to enjoy in the area (all within a 20–30 minute drive):

- kite-/windsurfing
- surfing
- scuba diving
- horse riding
- whale watching
- rock climpbing
- hiking
- mountain biking
- daytrips to Morocco
- exploring the white villages of Andalusia


IMPORTANT INFORMATION: 

Please note that there is no public transportation in our area. In order to get here and, more importantly, to move around during your stay, allowing you to explore the beauty of this area, WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND you arrive by car. If you are flying in, we can help you with a rental car contact that does deals for as little as € 250/month.

If you are happy to completely disconnect from everything, focus on your work, and spend your free time chilling in the garden, you will be fine without a car too. Just be aware that it will take you 2 buses and a taxi to get here, and then your only chance to move around during your stay will be hitchhiking or some very long walks (1 hour to get to the beach by foot walking alongside a main road).

The closest airports are: Gibraltar (1h), Jerez de la Frontera (1,5h), Sevilla (2h), and Malaga (2.5h).

For additional information, review the location section and the Frequently Asked Questions segment.

Meet other inspiring souls, work, cook, eat and play together. Become part of our still-growing community heading towards a more fulfilled and sustainable life.
